2016 in dementia research – the good, the disappointing and the unusual

When a new year begins, it is common for people to reflect on the past 12 months and think about what is to come.
The Research and Development team at Alzheimer’s Society are no exception, especially as 2016 was a very interesting year for dementia research. The news about dementia was continually fluctuating: one minute we heard the news that the number of people living with dementia was falling in both the US and the UK, and the next we heard that dementia is now the leading cause of death in England and Wales. The same applies to the mixture of promising and disappointing results that came out of clinical trials this year.
